Maggie found her words somewhat odd, yet upon deeper contemplation, she struggled to identify the reason behind her unease.

On the flip side, Nathael stayed calm and collected.

Clara gestured to the waiter to hand the menu to Maggie and gently recommended, “Their cuisine is delightful. Take a look at the menu and select whatever appeals to
